Davido’s “Oriade” reportedly lost more than 1.34 million Spotify streams on Tuesday amid the platform’s latest removal of streams identified as artificial.
ChartsAfrica reported the figure on X, attributing the drop to Spotify’s monthly purge of fraudulent activity.
Spotify says it conducts regular cleaning to remove artificial streams from public figures. The platform defines artificial streams as plays that do not reflect genuine listening intent, including streams generated through automated processes, and says confirmed cases can result in public stream numbers being corrected.
“Oriadé,” Davido’s sixth studio album, was released on July 31, 2026. The 13-track project includes collaborations with artists including Black Sherif, Aya Nakamura, Leon Thomas, Mayorkun, FOLA and Llona.
